GEN. BOULANGER goes back to Paris
with much less parade than was made
over his departure. His critics say he
has found his level and has learned
humility. The naturalness OF his de-
meanor is rather a proof OF bis real
ability, and it may be very patent case
OF, he stoOp to conquer. Bou-
hanger has warm place in the
French affections and his ac-
ceptsnce Of the situation is very strong
point In hi 8 favor. The fluctuations OF
the cabinet leave the war office at dis
count and BOulsnger may we'll afford
the sembance OF a quiet he may not
feel. There is after all q subtle sense OF
riumph in the very quietude OF his
movements which seem to say must

SAVED MY MOTHERS LIFE.

Ever since can remember, my mother has
suffered from milk leg. Nothing would do
her any good. She had the best medical tai
ent, but they all did her no good. She suffered
with her leg for thirty years and never knew a
well day She would have to set up half the
night, holding up her leg and moaning. She
had no peace. She used all the best known
remedies in the country without effect
asked her to try your CUTICURA REMEDIES.
Got her Il bottle of CUTICURA RESOLvENT, and
she took il, and has taken IN all about six or
seven bottles, and now she is well woman
to-day. Her leg is entirely healed, and her
health was never better. She can 20 out every
day. something she has not done in ten years,
so you see cannot help stating to you about
your wonderful CUTICURA REMEDIES. You
have saved my mothers life | cannot find
vertised your CUTICURA REMEDIES far and
near.

The Committee Organizes Last Night, and
Recommends the Same Old Figures.
The Committee ON Salaries met in Clerk
Bowers Office ut the City Hall, last night,
and organized by electing Mr.. Gavin Chair
man. The salaries and commissions con-
sidered by the committee were those of the
two Assessors, tine City Collector, Clerks of
Markets, Weighmaster, City Sexton,
Health Officer, Lookup Keeper, City Re
ceiver, Clerk of the First Branch OF Coun-
ell, Deputy Sergeants, City Sergeant com
pensatiOn for summoning Council and com
mittees), and Wharfmaster. The salaries
were all lett the same as during the past
two years. When the Clerk of the First
Branch was reached, Mr.. Steeer said be
thought the salary of 800 was too high,
considering the services performed and the
further fact that the incumbent had an
other clerkship at $500. Mr.. Allison thought
the $500 was not out Of proportion to the
Committee clerkship salary, of 5000. II
the committee work was worth 5000, the
Council work was certainly worth $500.
The matter was discussed at considerable
length, and finally Mr.. Steger's motion
was withdrawn and the salary went at
the old figures. Weighnaster Robinson
was before the committee relative TO the
duties of his office, there being a DISPOSE
ton to increase the salary in view of the
falling of of consumption of coal, arising
from the use of natural gas. The old
salary Was 500 and 10 per cent commits
sion. Mr.. Allison moved to make the
salary $500 per year. besides commissions,
but it had no second. Mr.. Happy moved
to leave the salary at 500 and increase the
commission to Is per cent, and it wa
agreed to. The committee recommended
the adoption OF an ordinance fixing the
COMPENSATION at these figures.

The Western Association to Meet in Pitts

The Western Nail Association will meet
at the Mononglhela House, Pittsburgh,
tomorrow morning, in pursuance TO an
agreement reached at the last meeting,
some two weeks ago. 1t is probable that
another advance in the card rate will be
made, rs the season promises to he a very
active one for the trade. In the current
issue of the st. Louis 4gs Of steel, Mr.. Phil
lip Henry Moore, the local representative
pOf that journal, says:
The factories are holding firmly to the
-. 20 card, and a very active trade Is an
ticipated early in the spring. Production
has been curtailed by the frequent stop.
pages of the Wheeling factories, and hut n
few of them are over anxious for orders At
present rates. There are thirty-two facto-
ries in the Western Association operating
1905 machines, with an annual capacity OF
5,2iS, l62 kegs; ten of these mills, Oper-
ating about 1900 machines, are in the
Wheeling district: ten mills, operating 592
machines, are in PittSbuTg and the yicin-
ity. In the whole country there are some
sixty factories operating 5,144 machines,
with al aggregate capacity of $50 400
kegs. Very simple figuring will demon
strate that Wheeling is the headquar-
ters of this important industry.
Her prestige rs the great nail pro-
ducing center is not of recent origin, nor
has it been gained by the fact that she
CONTROLS the largest number of machines
operated in any one district, hut 1t was
earned forty odd years ago by the manifest
superiority in quality, shape, material and
in every other essential of the nails made
by her manufacturers, and they have jeal-
0uSly maintained and strengthened that
prestige ever since. Wheeling is also rap
idly acquiring fame for the manufacture
of BeSSemer steel, and for this she possesses
many peculiar advantages, notably among
which are her splendid mill sites, her
proximity TO the BeSSemer ore fields and
her facilities for transporting the raw ma
terial to her furnaces and the finished
products to the Western and Southern
consumers. She is the nail center; she
will be the BeSSemerSteel center.

To Be Presented at the Opera House This
Afternoon and Evening.
This afternoon and this evening that
popular comedy "A Night on" will APP
pear at the Opera House, and large audiences
will no doubt greet it on both occasions.
Those who saw it when last here will no
doubt 90 again. OF it the Detroit Free
Press says:
.. b. S~heppard's company OF comedians
gave the first of a series OF five perform
ances of Augustin Days clever and spark
ling farce A Night on" at the Detroit
Opera House last night. 1t called out a
numerous and representative audience,
and the spirited and admirable acting OF
the ladies and gentlemen of the company
seemed to meet with the readieSt and
fullest appreciation. This play belongs to
the light and airy creation that has given
Mr.. DAILY his extraordinary vogue, and
made his theatre i'll New York a synonym
for artistic matchmaking. This is the
third season that the principal members of
the company have acted together, and their
acting, in the language of one of the char
actors in the play, goes like a creased
wheel" The mechanism OF the perform
ance conld not well be improved, while
the authors treatment of the subject and
use of situations is intensely comic and
entirely clean. In 4 word "a Night orr
is wholesome fun, in an atmosphere of re-
iinement, served with a piquant sauce and
conceded by all who partake of it TO be a
palatable product of dramatic cookery.
